Thought for http://jimmy.qmuc.ac.uk/usr/im02pate/Subjbook.htm

1. http://www.cybergeography.org/atlas/surf.html -- atlas of different visualization· This site contains images of attempts to visually represent and map the World Wide Web. It also provides links and some background information on each of the projects pictured. This site provides an interesting 'snapshot' of how, in the past decade, graphical representations have been utilized in an attempt to make sense of Web resources. Please go to the site for more information· I like the “Natto View” as it clearly show clearly three dimensions. However, the visualization part is a bit clustered together and doesn’t show the information clearly (the name of the circles)Good use of the color to show the intensity/frequency on 2D view (good combination of 2D and 3D views)· WebPath is interesting too with the 3D view that look like the virtual image from the mirror
